The Oracles (e-book) (used book) | Erin Holtz Braeckman | bookbook.eu

Description

Long have the birds been bodhisattvas; again and again they return amidst the din in joyful song so that we might hear our own beauty, inseparable from the dreaming of the Whole.

These are their Oracles, gathered from the deep-ancestry practice of sitting out on the Land and listening, garnered from the ancient mother tongue of birdsong that awaits us there.

"Erin weaves her knowledge, her imagination, and her poetic gift into a series of meditations here that can be read sequentially, as a kind of study guide to the soul, or dipped into from time to time as needed, for jolts of insight, encouragement, and pure, inspiring beauty."

"We stand at such a turning point for humanity and anything that connects us to the More than Human world is to be celebrated. When it does it with such great, strong, clear heart, it is to be taken up and taken in and made part of our own songs and dreaming"
